--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-616 2005-07-22 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : mozilla Version : 1.7.10 Release : 1.3.1 Summary : A Web browser. Description : Mozilla is an open-source Web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance, and portability. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Mozilla is an open source Web browser, advanced email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor. A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled synthetic events. It is possible that Web content could generate events such as keystrokes or mouse clicks that could be used to steal data or execute malicious Javascript code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2260 to this issue. A bug was found in the way Mozilla executed Javascript in XBL controls. It is possible for a malicious webpage to leverage this vulnerability to execute other JavaScript based attacks even when JavaScript is disabled. (CAN-2005-2261) A bug was found in the way Mozilla installed its extensions. If a user can be tricked into visiting a malicious webpage, it may be possible to obtain sensitive information such as cookies or passwords. (CAN-2005-2263) A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled certain Javascript functions. It is possible for a malicious webpage to crash the browser by executing malformed Javascript code. (CAN-2005-2265) A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled multiple frame domains. It is possible for a frame as part of a malicious website to inject content into a frame that belongs to another domain. This issue was previously fixed as CAN-2004-0718 but was accidentally disabled. (CAN-2005-1937) A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled child frames. It is possible for a malicious framed page to steal sensitive information from its parent page. (CAN-2005-2266) A bug was found in the way Mozilla opened URLs from media players. If a media player opens a URL which is Javascript, the Javascript executes with access to the currently open webpage. (CAN-2005-2267) A design flaw was found in the way Mozilla displayed alerts and prompts. Alerts and prompts were given the generic title [JavaScript Application] which prevented a user from knowing which site created them. (CAN-2005-2268) A bug was found in the way Mozilla handled DOM node names. It is possible for a malicious site to overwrite a DOM node name, allowing certain privileged chrome actions to execute the malicious Javascript. (CAN-2005-2269) A bug was found in the way Mozilla cloned base objects. It is possible for Web content to traverse the prototype chain to gain access to privileged chrome objects. (CAN-2005-2270) Users of Mozilla are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Mozilla version 1.7.10 and are not vulnerable to these issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Jul 19 2005 Christopher Aillon <caillon@xxxxxxxxxx> 37:1.7.10-1.3.1 - Update to 1.7.10 - Fix a crash on 64bit platforms (#160330) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/ 698009229e06fad1d7b9406c072ee0a9 SRPMS/mozilla-1.7.10-1.3.1.src.rpm d2593847a3720f2437d61ab53061e9be x86_64/mozilla-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 949d5f656de6782f92af383cb2ff4ada x86_64/mozilla-nspr-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 42c12731ee0f67480c1e302956013bce x86_64/mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 315e96f6235299f9984ef87b33913408 x86_64/mozilla-nss-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 3dc29ad690ef97756e731f4f5c471b1e x86_64/mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 4b10675f37638dc40c426f8b45f67bfa x86_64/mozilla-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 38f4c8381123bc86bfbf28e4f3dd99b0 x86_64/mozilla-mail-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 7754ce9a64b65fab29cbea9ce6de9549 x86_64/mozilla-chat-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm 735fcb06fd18a1b69c12edc58556d83e x86_64/mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm d4c78884a0e27e95614dc4bff8b325fd x86_64/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm b08870788586b7831ab7a8ee8ff2b23c x86_64/debug/mozilla-debuginfo-1.7.10-1.3.1.x86_64.rpm eafc6311968ebfc5f7c806564b6c47c6 x86_64/mozilla-nspr-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm ca00c8845f2fc411acf3cf0729bdbca6 x86_64/mozilla-nss-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm e00f1b1a0af07f62e20fb92678816cc6 i386/mozilla-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm eafc6311968ebfc5f7c806564b6c47c6 i386/mozilla-nspr-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm 829f78f10fb46c3423a231c847f5c85c i386/mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm ca00c8845f2fc411acf3cf0729bdbca6 i386/mozilla-nss-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm 45424d71b9ab5b3124d9899633ba94be i386/mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm c9791bf350eba92088d98928804a8e6a i386/mozilla-devel-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm 2f1e0174bbd6e94143ab24f9b26017bb i386/mozilla-mail-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm dd6f87e4badc6dc179c7977208e84536 i386/mozilla-chat-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm 31af3c9bc533da93f5c0fe3aa25df2f2 i386/mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm 7216fc495e370b94795d965a3f02d280 i386/mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm eeb7aeb6e2dcd89ad39d43d7914f82c6 i386/debug/mozilla-debuginfo-1.7.10-1.3.1.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
